Disable Vista Hibernation

21/02/2007

Just picked up this neat little tip to disable hibernation in windows vista, remove the sleep button from the start menu and delete the overly large hiberfil.sys file from your hard drive.

powercfg -h off

Run from the command prompt (type cmd into the search bar or go to start > programs > accessories > command prompt).

The powercfg command can be used for querying the state of various hardware devices too, which is rather useful.

You of course do all of this at your own risk. :)
